These are called millisecond pulsars, and if they spun much faster the centrifugal force would rip them apart despite their tremendous gravity!

这些脉冲星被称为毫秒脉冲星，而如果它们旋转得更快，尽管它们有巨大的引力，但离心力也会将它们撕裂！

Ancient clumps of stars that predate the Milky Way, globular clusters are gorgeous and mysterious, and they are veritable millisecond pulsar factories.

球状星团是比银河系更古老的恒星团，既美丽又神秘，而且简直是制造毫秒脉冲星的工厂。

Taking advantage of FAST's high sensitivity, researchers from the Chinese Pulsar Timing Array (CPTA) collaboration monitored 57 millisecond pulsars with regular cadences for 41 months.

利用 FAST 的高灵敏度，中国脉冲星计时阵列 (CPTA) 协作组的研究人员以规则的节奏监测了 57 毫秒脉冲星长达 41 个月。

So far, using FAST-like large radio telescopes to conduct long-term timing observation of millisecond pulsars with extreme rotational stability is the only known method for effectively detecting nanohertz gravitational waves.

到目前为止，使用类似FAST的大型射电望远镜，对具有极端旋转稳定性的毫秒脉冲星进行长期定时观测，是唯一已知的有效探测纳赫兹引力波的方法。
